The extra-large, extra-priced DSi LL, unveiled in Japan early this morning, will be coming to North America and Europe in the first quarter of 2010, Nintendo tells Kotaku.

“A new iteration of the Nintendo DSi™ system will be introduced in Japan on November 21, 2009,” a spokesman told Kotaku. “To be known as Nintendo DSi LL in Japan, and as Nintendo DSi XL in North America and Europe, it will offer a screen 93 per cent larger than the current Nintendo DS Lite with a better view angle, an additional longer touch screen stylus, and preinstalled Nintendo DSiWare™ software. The new version will arrive in North America and Europe in the first quarter of calendar year 2010.”

No word yet on how much the DSi LL will sell for in North America, though the DSi LL will sell for ¥20,000 ($238) in Japan.

Any takers?

    Another bullshit hardware revision? WTF Nintendo? How about making some GAMES?

    Also, how long until this one is cracked by the R4 pirates?

    If it miraculously stays at the same price and doesn’t look or feel as bulky as it seems to be then possibly.
